My Beautiful Hydrangeas












Well, it's late on a Sunday night...much later than I intended to be and with a different blog post than I had planned also.  It's been 'A DAY!'  So, I want to brief tonight.  Not so many words, just some beautiful photos.  These are my beautiful hydrangeas.  When I say I don't have a green thumb...believe me.  These are just about the only thing growing on our property at the moment....with really no help from me.  I think they are gorgeous.  Took some to my next door neighbor yesterday and will share some later this week.  I love hydrangeas.  They are kind of like life...you just never know what you're going to get...and these are wonderful.  Since I can't share them with you in real life.....I can share the photos, so please ENJOY!  take care, pat

OOOO, they ARE beautiful. I don't have them. I wonder why because I always admire them. I love their delicate colors. Maybe that why because I am mostly drawn to bold jewel color flowers. Your bushes are perfect along the side of your house.

Every year the park near my home has a hydrangea festival. I love the way those flowers last and last and last. Thanks for the trip to your garden.

They are absolutely beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing. I just haven't been able to make mine grow. they always die...maybe I water them too much or something. I wish I could get some that big...and I LOVE them dried to use around the house....I have to use the fake ones, lol!

I have one little measly old hydrangea here at the farmhouse and have a tiny one I planted when we moved here trying so hard to grow but I want BIG ONES!! Yours are just breathtaking girl ~ I hope you are doing so good, I'm sorry I've not been by in a while! hugs and love, Dawn

Hydrangeas are my favorite flower. But alas I live in a zone that is just too cold for them to survive the winter. I am not much of a gardner either. But this year I am trying to get the kids excited about being out side with creating a fairy garden for Abby and a dragon lair for Alex. We will see how it all works out.
